Default ditch the turbo zc for a d16a6 or no?

i have a turbo dohc zc in my crx now. but in spring i plan on pushing it to the max at the track which means i will sooner or later blow it . so im thinking of just trading the zc for a crx si motor since they are much easier to come by when i blow one , do u think alot of power will be lost ? i know prob about 20 or so HP from loosing the zc but ill just run more boost on the a6 .. just wondering
